Moore, while brief was beautifully worded and very appropriate. The sermon of Rev. N. Watson was most thoughtful and impressive. Taking Christ's testimony of character when He said "Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist," he showed that in the life of the evangelist there was never a word or an act for self advancement but his entire service was in behalf of another.

From this he drew that the Christ like spirit in us is manifest through our labor for humanity. Speaking of the principles of the Knights of Pythias, "Friendship, Charity, Benevolence," he said that the world needed these and he commended the order for their work in promulgating these principles Greenville steamed within about a mile of the wharf, and then deliberately turned up the Sound for Elizabeth City. No attempt to take on board the passengers. No time given to said passengers to make their way to the steamer in boats. The Neuse was behind time.
